      1. Category A (proof of ownership of dwelling or long-term lease or rental of dwelling; legal documents indicating BC residence; parent or guardian filing income tax returns as a BC resident). Rental agreements must be complete documents (not just first page) and be signed by the landlord & tenant; AND
